Today I’m brewing a Chocolate Milk Stout. Pale malt, caramel malt and three black malts (pale chocolate, chocolate and black malt). I’m using chocolate nibs (10 min boil), and will be adding lactose at the bottling. Everything else is the same as usual.

Don’t worry about the noodles, it’s not going in to the beer. Noodles t is a quick perfect meal when the oven is occupied. I got use for the rice cooker to, it will cover the boil off from the big kettle.

I think I will do like the last time, at the second fermentation pour 10 liter in one and the rest in the the second and add water so I get a lower ABV beer.

It was 26C warm in my apartment, and it rained this morning so it’s not getting cooler than that. So I wrapped the fermentation tank in wet blanket and put the fan on it. The temp meter said 20C (pretty good).

Ok, I’ll be short today (I think). Today I’m brewing what I call Voodoo Juice (any kind of beer with spices and shit in it). I used pale malt and wheat malt, and cold mashed Chocolate Dinkel/Spelt Malt. The spices is Coriander, Anis Star, and Pomerans (Bitter Orange). Also at the end of the boil I’ll add 1kg raspberries for the ~20 liter batch. The little hops I used was Belma hops. I’m using a new yeast Safbrew wb-06, it is for wheat beers so I think it will be good.

It was a sunny day but quite cold and I was in the mood for Ska music which I played all day. Here is some pictures…

Today I’m brewing a Voodo Juice for the Christmas holiday. Pale Ale, Wheat, Oat, Chrystal, Chocolate malt and Japanese Oi! Punk. I will use anis, black pepper, cinnamon and ginger spices. I will hop it with Sorachi Ace (bitter & taste), and Amarillo (taste and aroma). I will banish the Safbrew t-58 (belgian yeast) and put it to fermentation.

From now on I will call all the beers I make that doesn’t follow the reinheitsgebot for Voodoo Juice, it goes without saying that I also have to banish the wort and send the correct spell into the fermentation process.
